Fellow Local Musician Wayne Adkins Needs Our Help

Wayne Adkins is a local Cincinnati musician. He has played numerous local venues, watering holes and charity events over the years. Through a series of unfortunate events, Wayne is in danger of losing the only thing he has left, his family home.

This whole situation started as a result of the astronomical expense to keep his father in a nursing home. His father, a career military man, saw his pension and life insurance sucked dry by the very institution that cared for him during his last days. These funds were supposed to be put towards paying off the house and final expenses. Wayne vowed to keep the house in the family by taking on the property and all that comes with it, including the taxes and bills. It has been a very tough battle for Wayne physically, emotionally, and financially to try and keep his family home and now he is in danger of losing it. Not if we can help it that is! This is where this the "You Caring" drive is aimed.

Anything helps. Go donate and help out a local musician in need. What else are we here for than to help each other out when we stumble. Please also share this with people who love a good time and great music because that is what Wayne enjoys giving to the world.
